Re: Excel 2002 problems opening files over network
Have you found any solution to your problem? Was it maybe just a virus? Cause I??m running out of ideas here and we seem to have the same problem with the exactly same hardware.
Best regards,
Daniel F.

Re: Excel 2002 problems opening files over network
If ou are using NT 4.0 Workstation, or 2000 Professional you are hitting a resource problem that can only be resolved by either upgrading (moving) to a Server product, or downgrading to Win98se.
MS put all sorts of limits in the "Workstation" flavor of each OS.

Re: Excel 2002 problems opening files over network
I have significantly reduced the issue, but not gotten rid of it completely.
I found we had an under capacity UPS running on the server, replacing this helped a little, secondly ensuring the Virus checker was up to date (Inoculateit 6.0) with the latest service pack 2.
As I say, it has reduced from happening multiples times daily to around once per week, but the customer is still not happy.
I would like to know if you are getting any errors in the health monitor under SBS particularly in regard to network disconnects or high data rates.
Cheers
PS My next step is a total reinstallation of SBS.

Re: Excel 2002 problems opening files over network
What Service Packs have you installed on the SBS server server elements? I think SP3 for WIN2K might be particularly helpful.

Re: Excel 2002 problems opening files over network
I would install it (WIN2K SP3) as part of SBS 2000 SP1. See: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;326914

Re: Excel 2002 problems opening files over network
This has to do with Opportunistic Locking.
Try this:
